Evolution is perhaps the only constant in biology 1 and nothing makes sense in biology without evolution. Although Julian Huxley may have made a similar statement Dobzhansky is credited with the first clear use of this phrase. Of course the notion of evolution and the effects of selective pressure go far beyond biology and permeate every aspect of our world and our existence. Evolution is a feature of every walk of life. Nothing stays still. Change is a constant. This is apparent even in the world of scientific publishing. The Journal of Pathology has become the leading research pathology journal with enviable impact factor, turnaround times and a worldwide reputation for excellence. It is evolving and a new Journal, The Journal of Pathology: Clinical Research ( onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/(ISSN)2056‐4538) has just been launched.
